THE BOOK OF ESTHER (Megillah Esther) A look at Chapter 9. Is there something special?

The Book of Esther is the only book in the Bible where the sacred name of God (YHVH) is never mentioned. Yet the outcome and activities, the plots, were all ordained by God. He saw to it that the events proved to save the Jewish people. The key characters were Mordachai, the King, Esther, and of course, Haman. Yet in Chapter nine, the request of Esther is realized, to see the 10 sons of Haman hanging from the gallows as a warning against all who might think about destroying God's chosen people....HOWEVER...there just might be a hidden prophecy in this chapter, one that took place 79 years ago.
We might say...another hanging...of 10 villains who dared to lay hands on the Jewish people. If you want to find out, here's the Facebook video I made.

What makes Jews or Israel more special?

Aren't Arabs also descendants of Abraham?

Why couldn't God give them a book called the Quran?

It is because the Jews did not believe in Jesus Christ that such a book came into being. The Quran acknowledges both Jews and Christians and urges both parties toward reconciliation. But this is history.

Just as some among the Jews still deny Christians,

The Quran also gave rise to certain groups who deny other things.

Human understanding can never keep up with God's thoughts,

And so humanity lives in hatred,

Unable to see clearly.

You can take it in mind for a while or whatever

People always drift with the current and echo the views of others.

Some say that truth is in the hands of a minority.

I would "Like" what you posted, but I don't like everything you said--some, but not all. You also encourage skepticism and doubt, which is not good.

But the answer to your speculative questions--which just seem to be you thinking out loud, which is okay to do--is that all the things you listed are not random, but are all perfectly orchestrated by God, working all things together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. In this there is no need to speculate the cause or the outcome, but there is hope and assurance.

All of the divisions that you mentioned are just the path that God has chosen, being made manifest. But we should understand that God is in control, and these things--like the Lamb who was slain before the world began--are only all that was before being revealed to men in their own life and times. Meaning: divisions did occur (before, in heaven) and this is us walking through it, living it, experiencing the consequences--as evidence presented before the final Judgement of God. Wherein, He is sorting it out--dividing the light from the darkness--daily. All of which is written, though not commonly, or fully, understood.

We should also know and understand that there is actually only One ribbon of truth from God that He has given to humanity down through the ages, since the beginning, that still continues. And the many different narratives claimed by men to be the only way, are no different than the rebellion of Satan. Was he not cast down to this valley of the shadow of death? Were we not also?

In the end God will have sorted it all out--His way--which is what all this is. And we--we who were not always sure, even turning to the right and to the left from time to time--we all are being judged equally. God is good!
